Revin is a reliant and tenacious woman, one of the only females who hunts and trades wild dragons. A chance to capture a rare golden dragon sends her on a quest to a small village far to the northâ€"deep into uninhabitable mountainsâ€"in the heart of a fierce winter.
The village of Awakening’s very existence is a paradox that is only the beginning of surprises that await Revin. A stranger she calls “Blue Eyes†brings up feelings she’s never experienced and a woman, the leader of the village, is oddly familiar though they’ve never met before.
The journey becomes more than just the hunt as Revin unravels a conspiracy behind a ceremony, The Gathering, and something called the Time of the Burning. The situation becomes dire when she learns that the ritual may involve her and the golden dragon.
